Buying new lathe

Ricco G>I want to get a better lathe than I have, now I have an older Delta 14/11, I had it since 1981. I was looking at Oneway #1224 and 1640 and also Delta1642-16" and Jet 708358. Am I comparing apples to oranges I am not a full time turner, Would the Oneway 1224 suit my needs,I like to turn small items under 8" in dia.Is the 1HP enough?
